Byline: Nancy Gondo
Investor's Business Daily
Young Norman Rockwell had a knack for drawing and a big dream: He wanted to be a famous artist.
How best to do that? Rockwell (1894-1978) decided to draw people in pleasant orhumorous real-life situations that everyone could relate to. Scenes such as a postman reading the mail, children dancing or ladies playing cards touched mostpeople.
He took special care to paint detail, capturing the models' expressions as if t
hey were photographs.
"I could never be satisfied with just the approval of the critics . or a small group of kindred souls," he wrote in "My Adventures As An Illustrator."
